Actually most advanced societies are not producing enough children to keep the population stable.

But they're importing enough immigrants to more than make up the difference.
Which is a very good thing.
Is it? Advanced society's dying off isn't something people usual celebrate.
Nobody said dying off, but it's a well-understood fact that humanity is growing at an unsustainable rate.
Good. There are too many people as it is. Running the birthrate at below replacement levels for a few generations is the only humane way to address that.
